Next Glendale City Council Meeting is in Texas!
Hello Glendale Residents, did you want to attend the next Glendale City Council Meeting? Pack your bags and get ready to fly to Texas were you will have the opportunity to watch the March 7, 2016, at 4:30 PM the Sheraton Hotel Lobby, 400 North Olive St, Dallas, TX 75201.
Agenda includes viewing the Klyde Warren Park (2012 Woodall Rodgers Freeway, Dallas, TX). This is similar to the park project over the 134 freeway that city council would like to build in Glendale. Can’t afford to fly to Texas on such a short notice? Call the city 818-550-4400 and see if they will be able to get you a ticket. I wonder who is paying for the entire council to travel to Texas?
